The Big Blackout

We watched Channel 4’s drama documentary last night about what would happen if modern day Britain experienced a blackout, similar to the one in London during World War Two.

The documentary highlighted different scenarios of people being caught in the blackout with no electric power to source anything, showing how we would react. These scenarios included homes being plunged into sheer darkness, un-purified water from the taps, hospitals being ran on creaky generators, and thieves who tapped petrol from cars and tankers that were destined for the emergency services. All of these scenarios are pretty awful, but imagine if you were unlucky enough to get caught in a lift?

It would be a total nightmare if you were the unfortunate one who got stuck in a lift during the blackout and it wouldn’t be any normal scenario either, you’d be stuck in blackness – without making it sound worse. If this was to even happen, and we sure hope it doesn’t, Elevators Ltd will do the best to get our lift engineers out to you as quickly as possible.
